Michu Meszaros had a stroke last Thursday and was hospitalized since then.  He passed away Sunday night at the age of 76.  He was only 33 inches tall.  He wore a full body suit to portray ALF, which was sometimes portrayed by a puppet.  Paul Fusco was the voice of ALF.  RIP.

I guess it makes sense, but I didn't remember them ever having a guy in a suit.  I still don't like the guy who played the father, but I guess he was the opposite of ALF.

Wasn't Joe Lieberman the guy that played the father? Sure sounds like the same guy.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams
